The InPro 5500i is a thermal conductivity CO2 sensor for measuring and controlling carbon dioxide levels in beer, soft drinks and other carbonated beverages. InPro 5500i provides the reliable measurements you require to ensure final products meet your high quality standards for taste and mouthfeel. The sensor is designed for easy serviceability, and Intelligent Sensor Management (ISM) predictive diagnostics technology in the InPro 5500i helps manage maintenance efforts.
The one-piece membrane design concept makes the replacement process fast and easy, and simplifies and reduces the time needed for maintenance.
The standard CO2 sensor requires a replacement kit that has up to 15 different pieces and parts, many packaged individually. The METTLER TOLEDO InPro 5500i CO2 sensor only requires two pieces to do maintenance.
The InPro 5500i sensor helps ensure final products meet your process standards by providing reliable, accurate measurements of soft drink and beer CO2 levels.
The thermal conductivity measurement technique provides high accuracy and low drift in dissolved CO2 determination. InPro 5500i offers high CO2 selectivity and immunity to background gases.
Used for CO2 measurements in the hygienic environment of beverage production, the InPro 5500i sensor is steam sterilizable, withstands CIP processes, and is constructed of only FDA approved parts.
The InPro 5500i has no moving parts, helping to prevent downtime. The membrane is designed to be quickly changed to reduce maintenance efforts and costs.
With a 316L stainless steel surface finish, the InPro 5500i is hygienically designed with a membrane cap that can be easily cleaned and withstands CIP processes.
Varivent, Tri-Clamp and 28mm/M42 direct process connections are available with the InPro 5500i sensor, making commissioning quick and straightforward.
The InPro 5500i sensor is equipped with ISM technology, which provides unique features such as Plug and Measure technology and predictive diagnostics to help schedule maintenance.

We support and service your measurement equipment through its entire life-cycle, from installation to preventive maintenance and calibration to equipment repair.
The InPro 5500i is a digital thermal conductivity CO2 sensor which measures dissolved carbon dioxide levels in beverage production. These beverage CO2 sensors deliver precise, real-time data using integrated temperature sensor technology and built-in sensor protection. The InPro 5500i provides reliable measurements of CO2 in soft drinks and beer, ensuring final products meet your quality standards. InPro 5500i is a digital sensor built on Intelligent Sensor Management (ISM) technology, which enables advanced diagnostics to simplify handling and reduce sensor lifecycle costs.
The InPro 5500i works by the thermal conductivity principle. The sensing electrode is separated from the measurement gas chamber. Carbon dioxide diffuses through the membrane and into the gas chamber of the InPro 5500i CO2 sensor for beverages. The thermal conductivity sensor detects dynamically the change of the thermal conductivity of the diffusing CO2 gas continuously. The gas diffusion rate is proportional and correlated to the CO2 concentration in the media.
The InPro 5500i soft drink and beer CO2 sensor uses Intelligent Sensor Management (ISM) technology to simplify sensor handling and reduce sensor lifecycle cost. Features include:
Plug and Measure technology which allows the sensor to be calibrated away from the process.
Predictive diagnostics, including the Dynamic Lifetime Indicator, which detects when membrane replacement will be required, and the Adaptive Calibration Timer which predicts when calibration should next be performed.
The InPro 5500i thermal conductivity CO2 sensor by METTLER TOLEDO has Varivent Type N, Tri-Clamp 2", and 28mm with cap nut M42 direct process connections available.
